"To the Editors of the South Simcoe Times.
Five months of the year are gone, and yet no indication of any attempt to forward the erection of the building, although the means to do so are said to be at hand.
Do our Councilmen image they can play possum in this manner, or make it a stalking ... to ride into office next year. If they so think, there is one who will do what he can to "lave them at home," undisturbed for the remainder of their natural lives, for as sure as Jupiter forges thunderbolts, not a soul of them will ever control the affairs of the village hereafter, if it can, with the help of others beside himself, be prevented by

"Fire, Fire, Fire!
I have pleasure in stating that I shall soon make arrangements, for the purpose of disposing of the Dry Goods saved from the Fire of the 24th ult. The Goods are in excellent condition and will be sold At and Less than Cost, for Cash. They are principally this Spring's purchases, and consist of Staples which everybody requires. I expect to see the "old familiar faces," and a good many new ones - and that, ere many weeks, the last "remnant" will have disappeared.
D. James George, Bradford, July 2, 1862."
